FOX News stars Hannity, Tucker & Ingraham used as scapegoats
ANCHOR'S AWAY!

FOX News' top hosts and ratings-getters may be on the chopping block in a desperate attempt by network bigwigs to save their own skins and clean house after the cable news channel's blatant, cynical lies about the 2020 election were exposed in damning testimony given under oath, insiders tell GLOBE.

The looming bloodbath involving hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham is tied to a $1.6 billion lawsuit against FOX by Dominion Voting Systems, which claims the network and its stars defamed the firm when they claimed voting machines were rigged as part of a conspiracy to steal votes from former President Donald Trump to ensure Joe Biden's victory.

But sources tell GLOBE Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham are sacrificial lambs who were just following the company line saying on air what bigwig execs ordered even though the hosts knew it was hogwash!

"Laura, Tucker and Sean were told to pump these lies on air by the network's bosses when they knew for a fact Trump's claims about a rigged and stolen election were untrue," says the insider. "Now they are being served up as scapegoats to save the network and take the fall for the scandal.

"The suits will do anything to save themselves and the company!"

The bombshell revelations about the FOX scandal came in depositions filed in the Dominion lawsuit, where Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham admitted their part in the sham.
